Yep, like ol @P@ul suggested, just cover up the core.

Back in the day, when we had very large radiators (which by their large size did most of the cooling), because they weren't shrouded, it was common to slip a piece of cardboard in front of the radiator, so the engine would warm up.

I had an MGB in CT that I drove for several winters, that had an oil cooler up front, that I used to duck tape over in the winter time.
